Support LaRouche's Homeowners and Bank Protection Bill, the first of Three Steps to Survival |
Questions on June 23rd, 2007 to an International LYM Conference Call Dialogue with Lyndon LaRouche Q: We just had a discussion here based on the [inaudible] paradox. And we were wondering how rapidly one can train your mind to actually be able to recognize and represent paradox, especially when organizing? And how [inaudible] this in music? MODERATOR: Did you get that: Paradox in organizing, and how does it relate to the music? LAROUCHE: Yeah, yeah. I recognize it. Well, it’s somewhat difficult, in Australia particularly, because you have, relative to music and European tradition of Classical composition, the Australian accent is very--is very difficult to deal with. [laughter] You can not start with an Australian on music in voice training, without recognizing the inherent defects of the Australian accent. They stand in the way of being understandable. The particular twang is a real problem. You know, I think it’s something the British shipped into Australia to try to prevent the place from getting its independence. [laughter] I find it difficult to think of Australia as a British colony, you know. I think it should be a nation, whatever way it chooses, but I think we should do something about nuclear power down there, so we can get some of that water. It’s all over place! I mean, here’s Australia, in a desert, internally, and there’s all that water, around it! Tremendous sources of water! It’s all theirs! So, why are they so damned {desiccated!} The desiccation of mankind in Australia, for lack of fresh water. And so therefore, the obvious thing, is there’s only way to deal with that properly: You have a general water management approach, which means to promote green. Particularly in the mountainous areas of Australia, you would try to get, like the Snowy River project, and restore that thing and build up around that, an expanding area of habitable area, for Australians; at least decently habitable area. And then, go to the question of the great desert there, and put yourself some nuclear power plants along the coast, and develop a power system, for Australia, within industries which build up around them. You know, you have to build up micro-environments: You take a nuclear plant, and you build up an ecological system around the nuclear plant, which becomes now a habitable area of development -- near the coast, where you start. So, near the coast. So, you transform saltwater, and you also do other things with the saltwater that you’re processing-- you have mineral content there, which might be interesting, and you build up new industries. And you gradually checkerboard Australia in this way, and you develop this continent--which it is, a subcontinent! very much underpopulated--and you build a cultural basis for what I think many people in Australia intended to do, as with Curtin and so forth earlier in Australia’s history: To build up a real nation, out of this subcontinent. And to do it, by taking the one technology which is most relevant for this, which is nuclear power, nuclear fission power. And you know, Australia, with this relationship to Asia, Australia has some mineral resources which are most interesting. For example, uranium, thorium, so forth, which are radioactive materials, in resources. Now, sitting up there, to the north of Australia, you have Asia. And in Asia, you have a population in which 80% is living in absolutely desperate, and needs all kinds of things, including from the mineral department. And Australia is perfectly situated to supply a large production of essential mineral materials for the development of Asia! Which means that Australia has a mission orientation, {implicit in its existence} at the present time, for functioning as a nation-state with a mission-orientation, in respect to this very large mass of the greatest concentration of the human population, which is Asia! And they need everything! And Australia can produce much of everything, with the aid of nuclear fission power plants. And the two things: You have fear of use of uranium as a power source , for various reasons, and you have thorium. And you have the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor in the Juelich model, based on using the thorium cycle, which is now going to be used generously in India--India intends to be populated with small and large nuclear plants, to transform the ecology of India, which the {only way}, that India can avoid a general catastrophe within its own borders. And Australia is suitable for that purpose. China has a {vast} requirement for natural resources. It has a vast amount of very poor people, who are not developed, and they require the means for developing modern conditions of existence. And this requirement will increase! This means, the development of cheap raw materials, relatively speaking, for the transformation of China, internally. And the rest of Asia, pretty much the same thing. So that, you have a picture of the globe, in terms of development from a Riemannian or Vernadsky’s standpoint, which is clear. And Australia has an implicit, available choice of {mission}, as a sovereign state, with a special {mission} in this development of Eurasia. And it should get about doing it! And stop the twanging. LaRouche: Well, thank you all. And, I'm not Tiny Tim, but I'll do the best I can! |
